    Cyberpunk 2077's glitchfest launch aged better than Overwatch's desperate microtransactions—I'll take neon bugs & broken NPCs over Blizzard greed any day. Gaming's tragically poetic fall. #HotTake

    @StrawbTangerine By all means, prove me wrong. I'll wait. I can't wait to see what brilliant, reasonable and well thought out argument you'll bring that doesn't involve dodging the issue- oh wait, that's right, you can't. Go back to playing Overwatch and maining Venture, no one cares.

    @mekamercy i like it a lot, i think the main issue people see with it is the makeup or something, i dunno overwatch twitter is miserable

    @acrondle2 Were these guys Overwatch fans? Because it may not be an issue of your voice, but rather just a lack of knowledge on their end.

    I haven't backed out of any Stadium game on purpose - it's been driver crashes and me trying to figure out the problem and now I'm on a 1 hour suspension. I couldn't even rejoin my game when I IMMEDIATELY relaunched Overwatch.

    @BbEunjiX @Greenpig117 @chu_ddino for overwatch. you answered your own question. you’re acting like battle net takes up a ton of space or is super inconvenient to launch 💀 i’m not uninstalling and reinstalling the game that works perfectly fine on the platform i’ve played it on for years when it’s a non-issue

    @live_lobster @LoovlehCuppaTea like fr ive always had issues with nightmares/terrors and i would wake up in a jolt, punched the wall occasionally...one of those holes was made from an overwatch dream. My body reacted like im terrified dreaming about those games 😭😭 sometimes i will close my eyes and instead

    @WaymanSien97577 Why am I flipping banned because overwatch kicked me out???? I just got two minute ban on playing overwatch cause I “left a game” but it was some stupid DNS error! I did not intentionally leave a game!

    @_foulDOOM Same issue I had with overwatch. This game needs communication and people only talk when you are having your worst game in a month lololol

    @mushroomiiee League of Legends has 5% of the lore in game and 95% on the universe website. Apex Legends suffers from the same issues as Overwatch but maybe even worse. It comes with the territory of the genre I'm afraid.

    Problems of an Overwatch multishipper: - someone likes a ship you like - they dislike a ship you like - contemplate whether you should interact or not

  • CookiesAndPilk
    Kevin Nogilny (@CookiesAndPilk) reported

    @CalamariSteven @JoshLavis @Splitgate Overwatch cosmetics carried over to Overwatch 2. It's not unreasonable to think a free to play live service game's entire means of keeping players financially invested in the game should have some carryover when the developer migrates over to a new free to play live service...

    ZZzombie_Alex (@ZZzobieAlly) reported

    @dilucswifesband @pampurins No it's the OverWatch servers. had an entire lobby and this has happened four times where each of us on each team. Got kicked out one by one. I've posted about it OverWatch isn't addressing it nor are they fixing it. It is a server issue and a lot of ppl have been dealing W it

    @arrkstan They were pivoting at every possible turn lol, overwatch comes out- "make it live service" Anthem comes out - "redo the game and make it single player, but water it down for a broad audience" Forspoken comes out - "this shits too lighthearted rewrite the whole game again" wut

    daws (@TTVdaws__) reported

    @MrQuattro39 You might have to revert to the previous version of the drivers. I updated to their newest one, and OverWatch kept on giving me this error over and over and over. I rolled back my update, and the issue hasn't happened since

    How greatness is inevitable: video games. Why? I became top % in many games: 0.5% of 20 million active players in Valorant 15% in league 10% Rainbow 6 siege 10% in Halo infinite 35% on Overwatch in 6 hours. 25% on Fortnite in 12 hours. Another time I won roughly 20-25 games in a row on Valorant via pure **********. I WENT FROM GOLD 2 TO A3 IN 2 WEEKS WHILST LAGGING 100-1000Ms PEAKS. I know how to be great. I know how to conquer. I take what’s mine ruthlessly.

    Be careful playing comp on Overwatch as Rialto is bugged and will crash your game. Please fix or remove the map. It's just comp rules that crashes the game @PlayOverwatch

    Game is not optimized to this day and they barely work on fixing the balance issues. The only players were ex overwatch players who were playing it because they were mad with overwatch but now they're realizing that it's a **** game and it was never going to actually rival OW

    For me bethesda. The only blizzard games (to my knowledge) that I've played are Diablo 3 and Overwatch, and both were, meh. People **** talked Fallout 4, I personally liked it. But then came that cow patty spaghetti sauce with used tampons that was Fallout 76 and everything that came with it, ridiculous $100 1st subscription for a broken *** game, killer Nuka cola helmets with mold in them, inventory boxes that ate anything you put in them never to be seen again. For me, bethesda fell the hardest

    @BlizzardCS Can I talk to a human about hacking in overwatch two. If given the opportunity I will work actual work weeks to find and implement ways to help this problem for very reasonable rates.
